Notes
Purple Majesty potato (Solanum tuberosum 'Potato Tubers, Purple Majesty') is a vegetable for containers and food gardens. It is typically grown as an annual. Frost will kill it, so set it out only after the last frost in spring. This plant likes full sun and average to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. Bees and butterflies visit it. It is not a favorite of rabbits, though hungry rabbits will eat almost anything.
Pairs well with Garlic, Broccoli, and Scarlet runner.
